' being r'stlightly closed on theseal part b,

so as tocause said displacement preventing projections 8, 9 to interlockwith the bed die, 'wherebythe seal part is held/in place ,while the cordreceives afin-al tightening pull, and the pinning element a is -pushehome. The dies are then fully closed so as to solidify the seal partupon the cord and wire and to impart to the latter an effectivewithdrawal-resisting bendz, l0, Fig. 7.

Both ends of the pinning element a are conveniently exposed, so that itcan, be 4seen Awhether the Wire l effectively penetrates the 'folds ofthe neck of the bag; and a, pull on the knob 2 quickly determinesWhether the seal has been securely press-fastened or has been tamperedwith by cutting the Wire between the bag neck and the seal part b.

The knob 2 also engages the tightened loops ofthe cord, and' prevents:slipping them on the neck of the bag in attempts to unfasten the seal.

The compressible seal part b may obviously be of different forms, as setforth Jfor example in said Patent' No. 960,630; and other likemodifications will suggest them' selves to those skilled in the art. l

Having thus described 'said improvement, claim as-my invention, anddesire to patent under this specification:

l l. Ina Ipress-fastenable bag seal, aneck pinning element composed of apenetrating wire having ,a pointed end adapted to he lfolds of the neckof a bag and a push/ing and `pullinglknob at its other end, incombination with a compressible seal part having threading holes, and'a.' loop-.formin cord threaded through said seal part an adaptedtofembrace th/eneck of Madere the bagV by its loops, the pointed end ofthe wlre of said neck-pinning element being adapted to extend throughthebag neck and to be pressfastened within saidfseal part,

and its knob to engage' thetightened cord loops. y r

2. In combination with a loop-forming cord and a compressible seal part,the-latter having means including a central threading hole to engagesaid cord`a neck pinning element composed of a Wire adapted to penetratethe neck of a bag,' 'and tov extend through saidksealpartwithin saidcentral hole, and a pushing, pulling and loop-engag ing knob fast'on/the heel end of: said wire.

3. In combination with a lo'opoiming cord anda empressible seal part,the latter having means including a central threading hole to engagesaid corda neck pinning element composed of a wire adapted to penetratethe neck ofa bag and to extend lthrough said seal part within saidcentral hole, and crimp/ed at its, heel end, and a pushing, pulling and'loopengaging knob of lead cast fast on said Acrimped end.-

The combination, in a press-fastenable bagseal, of a neck-pinningelement comadaptedto be pushed and' pulled by thumb `and fingers,threading means including a central through holeadapted 4to bepenetrated lby the pro'- truding point end oi said Wire,'and means orpreventing the displacement of said vseal part/When loosely the/sealpress by pushing home saidneekpinning element, and a loop-forming cordthreaded through said seal part and adapted to embrace the neck of vthebag andto engage with saidjknob as part of tened seal, substantially'-as hereinbefore specified..
